  1. Hi everyone, thanks for your help. I have “customised” a modern tsuba for now by inserting a silver tonbo menuki on it. Will use that one until the right one comes along.
  2. Wanted to Buy. Small (ish) round Tsuba with "Tonbo" (Dragonfly) themed Tsuba. regards Gwyn

  8. Here in the UK there are chains of Pet shops who sell bits of antler in all shapes and sizes as "Dog chews". They are very very cheap and you can pick a shape/size that would be most suitable for your use.
  9. Hi John, Nice to hear from you again, hope you are well. Pickle jar tsuba still with me. Will start bumping the "Want to trade" thread in the New Year, hoping to move it on. Perhaps I'll just sell it off cheap for about £100? Take care and have a nice Christmas Regards Gwyn
  10. Thanks to KojiroSan (Lukas) for a really good bargain. Good communication and smooth transaction. Regards Gwyn
  11. This was the very first Nihonto I bought, almost 30 years ago. Although not "very special" , it was "very special" to me. It was an antique Koto Chisai Katana in Gunto mounts. The name on the leather scabbard was "Hiroda". So I called it "Hiroda". When the leather scabbard was removed, it had a beautiful Yanone (arrowhead) Kojiiri. The Fuchi was also Yanone but the rest of the Tsuka apart from the Same was "LOST". over the years I have searched and searched for complimentary replacement parts. Grev's Tsuba was the Cherry on the top. Small enough to fit a Chiisai Katana perfectly. I am so happy. Now looking for an Yanone Kozuka. Thanks Grev Thanks Joel. (P.S. Joel - hope you also "Love" your purchase from Grev?)
  12. Hi Grev, (Joel) Tsuba arrived safely. It's ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC Thanks Gwyn
